Greg Freckleboy said it was better to underthrow than overthrow. I agree with most of what he said.
"At least if you underthrow it, there's a few things that could happen," McElroy said. "One, you get pass interference. Two, your receiver could go up, make a catch on a 50-50 contested catch situation. Or three, it's potentially going to fall incomplete. Underthrown deep balls are so much harder on the defense than they are on the offense because the defender never looks for the football."
Call it touch, air mail, whatever. If Milton puts some more air under his passes, it will give the WRs more of a chance.
Accuracy is being able to throw to the WR in stride. There are only a handful of Qbs that can do that, and most of them have had Hall of Fame careers.
